What Bonnie's benchmark should we expect for RAID 0+1
Hello, We have a Compaq AlphaServer 8400 with 8 GB RAM, 8 dual 625mhz CPUs and two HSZ70 Array Controllers. Each Controller is connected to 24 36GB 10K rpm Ultr SCSI disk divers. In the system, some volums are configured as RAID 1, and the others are configured as RAID 0+1 with 3 striping. However, we can't see significant performance improvement in RAID 0+1 volums except random seek. The following are the Bonnie's benchmarks for two kinds of volums: For RAID 1: ---Sequential Output ---Sequential Input-- --Random-- -Per Char- --Block--- -Rewrite-- -Per Char- --Block--- --Seeks--- MachineMB K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU /sec %CPU RAID11024 9029 55.1 9108 14.3 8956 15.6 15700 89.4 115531 99.9 2535.2 65.9 For RAID 0+1: ---Sequential Output ---Sequential Input-- --Random-- -Per Char- --Block--- -Rewrite-- -Per Char- --Block--- --Seeks--- MachineMB K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU /sec %CPU RAID01 1024 9780 58.8 9872 17.1 14067 25.7 15990 89.7 56037 59.5 5374.3 169.9 Is there something wrong? What Bonnie's benchmark should we expect for RAID 0+1?

RE: How to re-trace a session
I made a mistake. In fact, I can trace other sessions. But I can't re-trace the session of which trace file had been removed. Is there any way that I can re-trace the session without restarting the session? Tom -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 2:14 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Jared, Tim and Anjo, Thanks for your help. In fact, I stopped the tracing first, then cp the trace file to other directory and rm it. Also I can't trace other sessions now. Tom -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2002 12:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Importance: High Tom, The problem is that you moved the file. Oracle will use the same file name, when you stop/restart tracing, and in fact leaves the file handle open until the session disconnects. Moving the file disables the output.
